Public service announcement: Talking to kids about ‘Star Wars’

Parents are wise to broach certain issues before their kids get an earful from friends. Those topics include sex, drugs, and…Star Wars. You need to fill them in on the light side and the dark side, right? You want them to know that Han Solo (not Greedo!) shot first, and that Binks may seem cool but he’s not good. You should advise them to watch the original three films and work their way back to the newer ones, of course. But do you tell them that Darth Vader is Luke’s father? Watch this “public service announcement” from Assylum for some tips on how to handle that very difficult part of the conversation.
